Clock Table

I love the scalloped edge on this table, but it was just a little blah. I've been wanting to do a clock face on something for a while now, and this little table seemed like the perfect guinea pig. I really like the way it turned out, but I also know what I will do differently next time. You live and you learn, right? :)

Before

Nice, solid table, but boring...

After

Love the legs.

The wood on the top had a tiger pattern in it. When I distressed it the pattern actually showed up in the paint, too!

My foot is making a guest appearance in this shot, I guess. :)

I met a great lady through a local page on FB. She does amazing work with vinyl and I owe her a great big "thank you!" for the clock face. You can check out her FB here. Hat's off to you Nancy!! :)

About Me

I love working with my hands--gardening, painting, scrapbooking, wood working....creating. A very wise man said creating is one of the deepest yearnings of the human soul--LOVE that!! There is just something about transforming old into new, and I'm happiest when I am doing just that. I love when someone in my family says, "What are you doing now?!"
